Alley

Roads in a dream represent the path you are on in life that you are using to reach your goals. A car represents the physical body. This is because that is the vehicle that our consciousness uses to traverse this physical reality. An alley is a shortcut that can be used in between major streets for ease of access or to cut down the time it would have taken to travel all the way around the block. An alley showing up in a dream will reflect how you are taking shortcuts within your waking life to take your goals. The context of how the alley is showing up in your dream can provide you with tremendous insight into whether you are taking shortcuts in order to achieve your goals faster, or perhaps the shortcuts are one of the obstacles in your way to truly reach your goals. Sometimes a shortcut in life makes things take longer or does not allow them to be completed with the level of quality that they deserve.
